IMPORTANT CONTEXT: There is genetic input into each human from each of 2 Parents, each of 4 grandparents, each of 8 great-grandparents, each of 16 2nd-great-grandparents, each of 32 3rd-great-grandparents, each of 64 4th-great-grandparents...and so on, doubling the number each generation further back into the past. A person's FULL genealogy is an amazing complex of diversity in genetic input!!! BUT, the socio-cultural (NOTE) input is much more focused the input from parents & grandparents and their surrounding culture.
